Read Winter as nature's way of saying, "Up yours."

Yep, I can believe that!!

Wonderful as always. I especially liked today's quotes. Very appropriate for late winter! ~karen
Oh, you found some gorgeous skies in your files, Sylvia! I love the budding branches against blue, so pretty!
I love that first photo! I hear blue skies are on the way!
Your photos look great in these frames, Sylvia. Nice touch!
Like your Spring header very much. Do you have flowering trees or bushes already? Oh, isn't Spring exciting and delightful...Lovely captures. Hope you have a grand weekend.
As usual the photographs and quotes are all great. I think the first one is my favorite this time because I love the composition.
:D I don't know where I am going either but I am always on my way :D
Terrific shots Sylvia. I like the deep blue :)
Gorgeous images. Each one prettier than the other.
What beautiful skies & views!
Happy SWF! =)
Love those beautiful skies Sylvia and the words are so good
I love these photos, Sylvia! Water! Buds! All good to these desert eyes!
Great sequence Slyvia. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
These are all great photos, as always, Sylvia. My favorite one is the firstone--I like the three horizontal sections--sky, river and fishing boats. Nice composition! Have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
Love the Byrne quote! :)
Wonderful shots you have found to share!
I had to look twice at the first one and then it dawned on me it was boats - wow. I wonder if I could borrow just one.
The next to the last sky shot is my favorite - a warm and lovely glow.
Hope your weekend is filled with beautiful skies.
As usual, nice skies and a good collection of quotes. My pick is the Will Rogers quote; liberty is a messy business and carries a lot of responsibilities.
You always manage to showcase the very best skies of Seattle. Have a lovely day.
Skywatch here
lovely series of photos. and the quotes made me laugh and think too at the same time. enjoy the weekend! :)
Sylvia, what a totally superb looking harbor scene. It should be framed, just that good!
I must confess my SkyWatch entry got messed up this week, as I was finally able to change the appearance of my blog and it was quite a difficult change over, so the little Nuthatch will have to suffice for this week.
Have a great weekend~ Mary
Lovely photos (as usual). I like your new Blog header picture too--tell your friend she does a nice job.. Your quotes are great--I always have a pencil and paper handy when I come to your blog. Thanks, Mickie =)
Would you mind locking me 'into the habour'?! Wonderful picture. Please have a good Friday.

Gorgeous images and yoru quotes are always wonderful, Sylvia! Have a great weekend!
Goregeous photos! And the harbour looks like a lovely place to visit!
Wish you a great weekend!

Stunning images and wise words in the quotes Sylvia! I have one more month here in the blue sky country! Enjoy your day. Anna
How true: liberty is well overrated. Try enjoying your freedom whilst your children are dying of starvation...But looking on the bright side...Wonderful set of photos here, Sylvia! You really captured the air of spring even though it still feels like winter. Have a good weekend!
Terrence looks at the sky
as always, your photos never fail to amaze me. i love the quotes too. have a terrific week Sylvia.
All excellent quotations, and true. But I love the Charlie Brown one.

You always have such beautiful photos, Sylvia, - and I'm always beguiled by your quotes.
It's nice to see some blue skies....let's hope for more of them! Wonderful selection Sylvia! Enjoy the day!
Photo number two excites me ^_^
SWF
I like the way you present these beautiful pics with quotes. Good selection.
Have a great weekend.
Beautiful photos as usual. I did not know what the first photo is showing.
brilliant captures all!
Lotusleaf, the first shot was taken at the harbor on the Sound, it's about a five minute drive from where I live and one of my favorite places to go. This was taken a couple of weeks ago on a really beautiful, cold day. Glad you enjoyed the pics for the day!!
Sylvia
Oh, golly gosh, I must be getting old, it is hard to concentrate on your pictures and concentrate on your well picked quotes.
I have to resort to the stratagem of absorbing the quotes as a first course and viewing your splendid pictures for dessert.The first shot got me right in the orchestra pit since it looks so much like something that it is not.
The boats in the marina huddled all together are like frosted furrows in a field turned by a master ploughman. A really amazing shot.
I once saw something similar while flying over Sydney harbour, there were multitudes of yachts out that day and the sea saw blue and in one of the large coves the white yachts were dotted on the water like sheep in a field.
Allusions can be wonderful that way.
Enjoy every step of every day my friend.
My joints are seizing up with the cold blasts from the Antarctic, must away for a walk to get them moving again.
Oops, forgot to mention your pussy willows, if they are out, spring in all its glory is not far behind.
I always feel like I have encountered a kindred spirit when I visit your blog. This post is wonderful.
oh my that first photo is just glorious. and it looks like pussy willows are out! beautiful skies Sylvia. and excellent quotes as usual - love the Sandburg and Truman! happy SWF, and have a beautiful weekend!
Allways look forward to Friday and your great photos and quotes. Have a great weekend Sylvie
Is that snow on those mountains?
That water is so amazingly BLUE - beautiful!
Nice quotes Sylvia and great skyviews again!
Beautiful pictures, Sylvia. Wow, the Olympics are so clear from across the sound. I am so glad the snow is melting up it. Have a great weekend!!
awesome , asusual your photos are just great
Beautiful as always Sylvia...
Loved the quote on recession and depression, very funny!!!
Have a wonderful day:)
Thanks for sharing these smiles and these beautiful views with us. I really like the second photo with the budding trees against the blue sky.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful skies and vast horizons with us Sylvia.
Have a great weekend.
Costas
Beautiful skies,love those branches.
Great pics as always, Sylvia. Second from the bottom (sunset?) truly outstanding. Nice to see the mountains out! We'll be over Portland way in a week or two, hope the skies are clear then.
The catkins are out, this means spring is on its way. Beautiful sun sets, each one poesia.
What wonderful shots, brilliant captures all!
Have a great weekend Sylvia
Love the stick people in your header. :) Have a nice weekend, Sylvia.
Those boats and the mountains, I always get mesmerized by them!
You really do capture the most beautiful skies, Sylvia! Have a wonderful weekend!
I do like that first picture - so much space and the boats look so small. Splendid.
Stewart M - Australia
Wonderful variety of skies! Especially love the sense of openness and freedom in the first photo and the radiant colours in the second last one!
Love that first pic especially, postcard perfect. Have a blessed weekend, Sylvia!
Great skies as always, no, better today. I also like that you started to frame the shots.
And, when I am up to that. I hope you don´t mind me saying that. Now when you learn to handle the photo manipulating program, why don´t you learn to tilt them as well? When the horizon is right your shots are excellent. :)
Lovely skies and quotes for skywatch. Hope you have a great weeke
Beautiful photographs and more from your never expiring fountain of quotes. I love the one from Sandburg about how much you can accomplish when you don't care who gets the credit. It takes people years to figure that out.
Have a great day Sylvia!!
so much beauty to be found here as always Sylvia:-)
Gorgeous skies and some wry quotes today. Actually that Carl Sandberg one about being an idealist really makes me smile; it kind of describes me -- I know how I feel, but I don't do much about getting anywhere with it.
The pussy willow picture is wonderful and makes me homesick for the Pacific Northwest. No early spring flowers here in FL>
Beautiful skies! And I love your quotes...had not actally read the Charles Schulz one before. I may adopt it as my motto...:)

Wonderful friendly skies, Sylvia.
Do we see the first time of springs? Great!
Enjoy your weekend!
Such gorgeous skies - a great variety as well! Thanks for those lovely quotes!
Have a wonderful weekend Sylvia!
So different, but each beautiful. Sylvia, you always show us the beauty in our skies.
Love all your sky photos and quotes.
Have a great weekend.
You've outdone yourself with these stunning photos.
Wonderful words and pictures! I like that first one very much..great snowtopped mountain with a beautiful blue sky!
Hope you have a happy weekend:-)
LindÃssimas fotos! As cores maravilhosas!
